College students are being in a special and important stage in the development of life.In particular,college students have a dual identity in this stage —— a student who is still in the ivory tower without being exposed to society;It is an adult who is about to come into contact with society and must begin to learn how to survive in society.Both two identities includ a bit of social interaction.And,the development of prosocial behavior has an important influence on good social communication ability.Therefore,the purpose of this study is to explore whether changes in facial emotion recognition of college students can have an effect on their prosocial behavior on the basis of embodied emotion theory.If so,what is the impact? In real life and development education,how to use this effect.In this study,52 undergraduates were studied by random sampling.Study One uses experimental paradigms in the theory of embodied emotion to study on college students,and pays attention to exploring whether the changes of people's facial expression cause impact on the emotion recognition,and the influence is significant;Research Tow is based on this,and further does exploration about the influence of recognition of different facial emotion on prosocial behavior,based on Embodied Emotion Theory,using Dictator Experiment.The following conclusions are drawn from this study: First of all,embodied behavior does have a significant effect on emotional identification.For positive emotion recognition,the act of smiling can shorten the recognition time and increase the accuracy.In the recognition of negative emotions,the inhibition of smiling behavior can shorten the time and increase the accuracy rate.Secondly,the main effect of the two variables is significant,and there are significant interaction effects.From the data,it can be proved that,regardless of the behavior of college students,emotional identification is more likely to be altruistic to others who identify as negative emotions.For people who identify positive emotions,their altruistic behavior is less likely to occur.When positive emotions were identified,physical behavior did have a significant impact on pro-social behavior.Specifically,under the condition of suppressing the smile,college students are more inclined to allocate more virtual currency to themselves,while the number of virtual coins allocated to partners is less.In the state of smiling expression,the social behavior of college students increased--the number of virtual coins allocated to them became smaller and the number of virtual coins allocated to partners increased.When the negative expression was identified,there was no significant effect.At the end of the study,the experiment is reflected and prospected.At the same time,the data result is combined with the practical application,and a reflection and discussion is made on the behavior shaping of college students.
